Stale No More

Theresa May still cares what sex or colour her frontbenchers are. But, to the great consternation of previous or putative beneficiaries of such considerations, the Leader of the Labour Party no longer does.

Jeremy Corbyn cares about his frontbenchers' political opinions. A lot of those frontbenchers are women. Some are black. Strikingly many are black women. But that is not why they are there. For that, you need the Conservative Party.
